Sometimes at gigs, me, Dan and Dot will be cracking a few jokes on stage and I think people are quite surprised.

I’ve been burnt – not just from having laser surgery but in life too, and I think it’s really important to not get bitter.
Interview with Craig Charles
It's nice to get a young crowd. I'd hate turn around and look at the crowd and see all middle-aged men like me. Boogieing like it was back in the day.

Interview with Wire
Pre-designing the music you're gonna make by the set of influences you have is a deathly awful idea. I think the best music that's made now is made in spite of that - just throw away the fucking book.

Not too shabby, no, but I did get held up at gunpoint though!
